"A-AH!"
"GET HIM!"
Won and n, old and young, all of them charged right at Elric as they tore through the walls and windows. The first one to fall did not even enter their sights.
Elric clicked his tongue and snapped his fingers. The water that had turned into a spike previous ca gushing back toward Elric. The glassful of water split up into many sharp droplets that glimred around Elric in a protective shield. A few of the villagers dropped their mouths at the sight.
"What the hell? Is that even possible?"
"What kind of spell is that?!"
"Oh?" Elric raised his brows. These guys talking about spells so casually made him pissed slightly. It was definitely not because he couldn't use any except create water. It truly wasn't
Elric snapped his fingers again, and the orbs of water around him shot through the place. They weren't narrow and sharp, but fast and nurous. The orbs of water-like balls of glass slamd into the villagers surrounding him and sent them reeling back. A smirk escaped Elric.
This was going to be easy.
He snapped his fingers again and collected the orbs of water. He had lost control of about a fourth of the total water after it stuck to the others' skins, but didn't let it hinder him. "Bring it," he said.
"[WOOD DO]"
A scream rang out. In the next instant, long stumps of trees ca flooding out of the ground below and ford a circular wall around Elric. Surprised, the boy tried to use the water to get rid of it before it completely surrounded him, but the water ended up seeping through the wood instead. A few droplets that tore through the wood were rendered useless as more wood imdiately replaced the broken bits.
"Don't let your guard down!" One voice scread. "He's a strong mage!"
"He's insane too! What does he an by 'know love?'"
"Soone, bring the sleeping potion from the alchemist."
The wooden do stretched to the top and completely surrounded Elric from all sides.
The boy flicked his hair, crossed his legs, and smirked. Cold sweat started dripping down the back of his neck. "I-I didn't think you all could use magic, now!" He scread from inside, trying his best to not shake his voice at all.
"Is he trying to get our guard down?"
"Don't stop until the potion is here. This man killed Xinia without batting an eyelid"
"Wha—!" Elric wanted to argue but stopped himself. He DID kill soone without batting an eyelid after all. If Claude found out he would be pretty pissed at him. That guy hesitated to kill monsters when they were weak, let alone humans. Moreover, Elric couldn't help but wonder if soone nad their child Xinia here? Was that why the guy was skinny?
"L-look. We should play fair and square like real folks, ok? You do not want to face at my weakest right? Give a month to train, you can even place a ring on my heart!"
"What is he chanting!?
The words of a wise man were gibberish to a fool!
"The potion is here!"
"Damn, shitty water magician. Who thought that trash elent could hurt us."
Elric heard sothing snap. He thought that it must have co from outside, but his heart knew otherwise.
Shitty.
Shitty?
SHITTY WATER MAGIC?
They had crossed a line one shouldn't even tread near water types. He was as pissed as he imagined he would be once he t a fire-type. Once again, Elric had no reason other than his delusions to be as attached to water as he was.
Elric clicked his tongue. They would have to make an opening in the wooden do to send their sleeping potion in. Moreover, he knew from their reactions that their magic control wasn't precise enough. Foolish bastards were planning to fight a water type with steam.
"I'll show you what living in mist does to a person, you fuckers! [Create Water]"
A blob of water ca gushing out in front of his palms. A wave of sleepiness hit Elric as only one mana point was left with him, but that was more than enough to control almost eight quarters a cubic ter of water, or one hundred and twenty-five cubic deciters, a one hundred and twenty-five-liter capacity!
Like a moth to a fla, Elric's eyes were drawn to the slight movent in the bottom half of the do. Idiots didn't even know to push it in from above. Elric snapped his fingers and the water was divided into two parts. One of them went crashing toward the hole at the bottom but stopped right before touching it. The sleeping potion tried to seep in, but the water clogged it completely, creating a small air pocket inside the do. He had enough to breathe.
"Hm? What's this? Why isn't the gas going in??"
"Hey, don't breathe it!"
"HAHA," Elric cackled. "IT'S CALLED REVERSE OSMOSIS, BITCH!"
It wasn't. It wasn't called that.
"M-make the hole sowhere else!"
Elric smirked. The other half of the water broke apart and ford javelins of water. Just as the first hole shut and the next opened up in a fluster, Elric sent his javelins coursing through them. His precise and confident control sent the javelin ripping through the air before the hole could even completely open up and dropped the person directly outside.
"Your fault for giving a shield and then surrounding . Idiots."
The people outside panicked at the sudden death. For added effect, Elric made sure the water squird around outside. Make them feel the fear of water.
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ The panic was exactly what he aid for. Magicians panicking was the last thing they were allowed to do, it completely broke apart their spells after all.
And it happened, the structure of the do weakened.
The first half of the water was never retracted, but instead, let seep into the wood around. Just as the control of the do spell weakened, Elric used the water to break apart a section of the do from within. Using it from outside was impossible with his lacking mana and lacking water, but this was easy enough.
The cracks spread.
So did the screams of the villagers.
The structure of the do collapsed from the side. Without missing a beat, Elric jumped out.
The villagers stopped in their tracks as Elric's long auburn hair fluttered in the night breeze carried through the broken windows. His eyes and lips moved just slightly, enough to enchant anyone who looked at him. The sweat and the tense situation had just made him more charming. Elric too swept his gaze over the villagers.
An instinctive fear crept up their backs.
The demon had stepped out of its cage. Were they going to be eaten? Killed?
They gulped.
Elric moved toward the broken wall, the place with the fewest people surrounding him. Nervousness was about to burst out from the villagers as he stepped closer.
Before their breath could give out.
Before they could gather their courage and jump him.
"Ok bye!!" Elric scread and broke through the line of people. His cool and scary image broke apart in bits and pieces, and he ran right through it and into the distance.
Silence enveloped the villagers as they all stared at his fleeting back.
"Ah..."
"AH!! GET HIM!!"
